I am thinking of you on Mothers' Day and am sorry for your loss. Barbara was a fellow dietitian with FMC and well-respected by all of us in the dialysis field. She will be missed and fondly remembered as a caring, dedicated professional. Take Care.

Forty years ago, Barbara taught this Texas transplant about all things New England, including the accent. I will miss the long, single-spaced, detailed Christmas letters....often handwritten.
She was a lovely, kind person.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you Dave, Eileen, and the Hosmer Family.

Barbara was one of the most generous women I have ever known. She also knew how to get many things accomplished at once. This came in handy as her schedule was always packed. It was great to volunteer with her in girl scouts. We all count ourselves lucky to have known her. Our family sends you many prayers.
